My brother Jerry emailed this very sad obituary to me. Mary Jane and family I am so very saddened to hear of Kevin´s passing. As a teenager I always enjoyed babysitting for the Children. I remember a fun trip to Russell´s Point one summer in the late 1960´s we had so much FUN. Heidi was just a baby back then. Lots of awesome memories. So very sorry for the families loss!

Please accept my heartfelt condolences for your loss. Kevin and I worked together at Keystone Foods in North Baltimore. He was our local GEM electrician. He was the job supervisor for several projects as well as our first choice whenever we needed to change a high voltage motor. My role often put me in direct contact with Kevin. He had a unique blend of professionalism, high standards for the work and an easy-going attitude that is rare in the high stress industrial setting. He kept everything in perspective and never got rattled when faced with an unexpected challenge. He taught me more than just electrical lessons. I am grateful to have known him. RIP my friend.

Kevin was here when I was born. He was already his own person and I was just the baby sister who wanted to tag-a-long. Always.
We were raised under the same roof. We watched the same television. As we got older, we played with the kids of our neighbors, but we weren't so very close. We were different people. Kevin was outgoing and seemed capable of accomplishing each thing he tried. As we grew up we went our separate ways.
Still, the bond of family is like a quilt. Each quilt square is stitched together on their own merit. When joined together by our memories, it becomes something beautiful. Kevin's name was written into the chapters of my life before I was born. Even when we weren't on the same page throughout the book, his story was there. And his story will still go own in the family he has created. I respect his story and my memories will give me comfort.
Losing my brother Kevin is a loss of a childhood and the ache in my heart for the loss of someone who was always there from my birth.
